Description
These waters are eclectic, baby, sometimes dyslexic, irreverent, and odd, but mom loves it anyway—Mother Nature, that is. And we love her. That’s why everything we publish at Skipjack Review must have within its radar a reeling concern for the natural world.
We are a journal about environment in every sense of the word. Beginning at birth, each of us is bound to our environment. From pollution of the earth to pollution of the mind to server farm statistics to gardening on Mars… We’d publish a modernized rendition of War and Peace, follow that up with a pretty haiku about flowers, and the next minute release some weird sci-fi in the vein of Flowers for Algernon—so long as at the heart of each is a deep concern for the world around us.
Send us your truths. Send us your untruths. Send us tales of victory. Send us tales of whoa—like that time you got poison ivy on your crotch. (Whoa!) Send us stories about those tiny creatures running for their lives while you were cutting the grass the other day. Or true stories about smoking grass beforehand and forgetting to turn the blades on during your first pass. Submitted work doesn’t need to be nature writing, but there should at minimum be an inherent fascination with the chance to be alive and breathing at a certain time and at a certain place.
